U.S. President Donald Trump has hinted at a significant upcoming announcement regarding the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine. Speaking to NBC News, Trump said, “I’m disappointed in Russia, but we’ll see what happens over the next couple of weeks. I think I’ll have a major statement to make on Russia on Monday,” though he declined to provide further details.
Weapons for Ukraine, via NATO
Trump also clarified the United States’ role in supplying weapons to Ukraine, emphasizing that the shipments are routed through NATO and fully funded by the alliance.
“We’re sending weapons to NATO, and NATO is paying for those weapons—100%,” Trump explained. “What we’re doing is the weapons that are going out are going to NATO, and then NATO is going to be giving those weapons to Ukraine.” He added that this arrangement was agreed upon during the NATO summit in June.
Response to Russian Escalation
The president’s remarks come in the wake of Russia’s massive drone assault on Ukraine, which reportedly involved more than 700 drones. Trump expressed frustration over the violence, noting that as many as 7,000 people are dying each week on both sides of the conflict.
According to media reports, the Trump administration has already provided Ukraine with a portion of the military assistance requested by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. The White House is reportedly preparing additional shipments of military aid, while Congress is working on new, tougher sanctions against Russia.
